Sword Art Online is a science fantasy anime series adapted from the light novel series of the same title written by Reki Kawahara and illustrated by Abec. It was produced by A-1 Pictures and the SAO Project, and directed by Tomohiko Itō.[1] It is divided into the "Aincrad" and "Fairy Dance" arcs. The story of the first season follows the adventures of Kazuto "Kirito" Kirigaya, a beta tester for the titular Virtual Reality Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game (VRMMORPG) where it takes place on the game's first day out of the beta testing period. The players discover that they cannot log out when the creator of the game, Akihiko Kayaba, issues them an ultimatum: if they die in the game, so will their bodies in the real world, and if they wish to be freed from the game, they must reach the 100th floor and defeat the final boss. As the players try to face their new deadly predicament, two skilled swordsmen, Kirito and Asuna Yuuki, are determined to win.[2][3] Three months after the death game, Kazuto discovers that Asuna is being held captive in "Alfheim Online (ALO)", a spiritual successor to SAO, where the players assume the roles of fairies. Kazuto enters the game and makes new allies to rescue Asuna.[4]

The series aired from July 7 to December 22, 2012, on Tokyo Metropolitan Television, spanning 25 episodes. It was later broadcast by 12 other stations.[5][6] Aniplex of America announced that the English dubbed version will air on Adult Swim's Toonami block starting from July 27, 2013.[7][8] The first DVD and Blu-ray Disc volumes were released in Japan on October 24, 2012, and it concluded on June 26, 2013, with all nine volumes containing a bonus Sword Art Offline (ソードアート・オフライン Sōdo Āto Ofurain) episode.[9][10][11] Four volumes of English dubbed episodes was released in North America on August 13, 2013, with the series licensed by Aniplex of America.[12] In Australasia, Madman Entertainment distributed the four volumes in DVD and Blu-ray format.[13] In Europe, Manga Entertainment first released all four volumes on December 16, 2013.[14][15] A special episode of the anime titled Sword Art Online: Extra Edition (ソードアート・オンライン Extra Edition Sōdo Āto Onrain Ekisutora Edikushon) was globally released on December 31, 2013.[16] A second season, Sword Art Online II began in July 2014.[17]

After a few hours, Kirito and Klein discover that they cannot log-out. Akihiko Kayaba, the game's creator and employee of the computer corporation Argus, announces to the players that he intentionally removed the log-out option and that all players will die if their Nerve Gear is forcefully removed or their in-game health bar is depleted to zero.

They both end up throwing away their swords and apologize to each other. After Kazuto explains that he is unable to say what he thinks of Suguha until Asuna is rescued, Leafa agrees to help him in his quest, dragging Recon along with her. Just as things begin to look dire, Sakuya and Alicia arrive with their armies to back them up. 
24 "Gilded Hero"
"Mekki no Yūsha" (鍍金の勇者) 
Tomohiko ItōYukie SugawaraDecember 15, 2012February 8, 2014[53][54]
Arriving at the top of the World Tree, Kirito and Yui finally reunite with Asuna. However, they are suddenly hit by high gravity magic, which forces Yui to retreat, and they are confronted by Oberon. As Oberon reveals that his plans to control the human mind are almost complete, he chains Asuna and attempts to molest her in front of Kirito. Falling into despair, Kirito hears the voice of Akihiko, who encourages him to stand up and fight. Using Akihiko's administrative functions, Kirito removes Oberon's powers and challenges him to a fight with no pain absorption, and shows Oberon what true pain is before destroying him. After logging Asuna out to ensure her safety in the real world, Kirito meets with a remnant of Akihiko's memory, who gives him an item called "The Seed" before leaving. 
25 "The World Seed"
"Sekai no Shushi" (世界の種子) 
Tomohiko ItōMunemasa NakamotoDecember 22, 2012February 15, 2014[55][56]
Rushing to the hospital, Kazuto is attacked by an injured Sugou wielding a knife. Kazuto disarms him and, considering Sugou's actions, ultimately spares his life. Kazuto finally meets with Asuna, and they have a tearful reunion. On May 16, 2025, Kazuto and Asuna attend a special school for students who were trapped in SAO. As they have lunch, Kazuto reveals that Sugou was captured by the police after their fight and that his crimes have been exposed by one of his employees. The 300 players that were trapped by Sugou have been released, but his experiments shocked the public. Later, Asuna, Kazuto, and Suguha head to Andrew's bar, along with Liz/Rika Shinozaki, Silica/Keiko Ayano, Yolko, Kains, Sasha, Yulier, Thinker, Klein/Ryōtarō Tsuboi, and his guild, where they finally have a proper celebration for clearing SAO and ALO. Kirito uploads the World Seed to the Internet, which revives the virtual reality gaming genre.

"Sōdo Āto Onrain Ekisutora Edikushon" (ソードアート・オンライン Extra Edition) 
Tomohiko ItōReki Kawahara & Munemasa NakamotoDecember 31, 2013December 23, 2014[61]
Kazuto and Suguha meet Asuna, Rika, and Keiko at their high school, where the trio have agreed to teach Suguha how to swim, in preparation for a quest in ALO so that Yui can see a whale for the first time. Meanwhile, Kazuto makes his way to the counseling office, where he meets Kikuoka Seijiro—a member of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. While investigating the SAO incident, Kazuto relates his experiences and previous actions in the game to Kikouka, so he can grasp Akihiko Kayaba's motives while also forcing Kazuto to reflect on his actions throughout the death game. After Kirito defeats Kayaba and gains no insight into his goal, Kazuto's story enters the ALFheim stage, rescuing Asuna and freeing all captive players with the help of his new-found friends. As Suguha eventually learns how to swim, Kazuto concludes his story by explaining the cost of power and leaves Kikouka. Later, Kirito, Asuna, Leafa, Silica, Lizbeth with Klein and Agil went to Turtle Island. They dive into the ocean and arrive at an undersea temple where they met Nerakk, a non-player character. The group begins the quest where they will retrieve a stolen pearl from the temple and return it to Nerakk. The group then found the pearl after exploring, but Asuna notices that it is an egg all along. Nerakk starts to reveal his true form that he is originally Krakken—The Abyss Lord, a very powerful monster which attacks and gives them severe damage. Just when all begins to be lost, Leviathan, the Sea King stops the Krakken and after a brief talk, the Krakken retreats. Leviathan then retrieves the egg, clearing the quest and returns the group to the surface on the back of a giant whale—their reward.
